Sutton Park Entrances Main Gate

Sutton Park’s main entrance — ‘Main Gate’. Easiest to reach from Sutton Coldfield town centre, which is just a hop and a skip back down Park Road. Cars can enter the Park here, across the cattle grid past the gate houses.
Arriving from the sprawling urban conurbation of Birmingham and Sutton Coldfield, miles and miles of roads and houses, people and cars and then to drive through the Town Gate entrance into the wide expanse of green and trees (white and trees at the moment), is quite a surprise, especially so close to the hustle and bustle.
You can just imagine the charabangs in the earlier part of last century, arriving down the central roadway into the Park, disgorging their excited passengers to flood out into the clean wide spaces.
So many people use the Park for their leisure time, walking, running, cycling, sittin chillin, nature spotting, exploring, swimming, fishing, boating, canoeing, splashing and splodging, sledging, dog walking and eating and drinking. Excellent.
Charging for cars does apply from Easter until early September, Sundays and Bank Holidays from 11.00am until 6.00pm. Free at all other times.
Fantastic place. Explore.
